ABSTRACT
Healing powers of plants are associated with ancient idea.
People in all continents have long applied poultices and imbibed infusions of
hundreds, if not thousands, of indigenous plants, dating back to pre-history .There
is evidence that Neanderthals living 60,000 years ago in present day Iraq used
plants such as hollyhock. These plants are widely used in ethnomedicine around
the world (Stockwell, 1988). About one-quarters to one half of all
pharmaceuticals dispensed in the world have higher plant origins, very few are
intended for use as antimicrobials Is Since the advent of antibiotics in the I
950s, the use of plant derivatives as antimicrobials has been virtually non--existent
(Cowan. 1999).
